I have a '97 tourer and throwing around ideas of making a bobber out of it. All the tin, plastic and paint is very good condition and do not want to fab on the stock parts. I visited with Willow about his yellow custom and the custom work was done prior to his purchase.There are several items I like on his bike. The bar risers and handle bars are one piece, does anyone know what they are? I can use a  combination of a riser and bars if needed. I want all stock cables, hoses and wires to fit. I want pull back riser and bars that are straighter and do not drop down like stock bars. No drag bars, do not want  to lean forward for the bars. I may have read in the past the shadow bars are used. The yellow bikes   rear fender. Is there a bike that has a stock bobbed that will fit or fabed to fit? I can cut and fab from a full fender if needed. Any ideas and pictures are welcome. Thanks. I do the two up and long distance on the st1300.

I cut and Fabbed the fenders myself, also made the exhaust. The bars are 14" Apes, didn't have to splice wires or change out cables or brake lines. The choke cable is a little tight.
Personally, I think it handles better with the apes on it over the stock bars. I also did the paint and striping.
